Hi. Let me give you a brief synopsis. My TSH level was checked 2/06 with a level of 6.71..so dr increased to .88mcg. In 2/07, I was diagnosed with ADHD & anxiety and treated w/Adderal XR and Effexor XR. In 10/07, I was admitted to psych hospital. My TSH level was 16.4 and was diagnosed as being bipolar. I work for fed govt and they are trying to fire me based on the fact they say I basically can't do my job anymore. I know the misdiagnosis of ADHD and treatment w/o mood stabilizer would cause the lack of focus, inattention to detail, distractibility, etc., but could the high TSH level be intertwined in there anywhere. I remember reading something about a high TSH level could slow mental functioning down. Just wanted your opinion.
Thank you for your time!
